FUJIFILM Corporation has announced the top model of the INSTAX series, 'INSTAX mini 99'. The scheduled release date is April 11, 2024. The expected price is 28,600 yen (tax included).
FUJIFILM's popular analog instant camera series 'INSTAX' has reached a new pinnacle. The latest model 'INSTAX mini 99' inherits the classic design of the 'INSTAX mini 90' released in 2013, and is equipped with numerous new features that significantly enhance the fun and creativity of photography.
Add Color to Your Photos with Color Effects
With 'Color Effect Control', photographers can add seven different tones to their photos. From normal tone (N) to faded green (FG), warm tone (WT), light blue (LB), soft magenta (SM), sepia (SP), and light leak (LL), a variety of expressions can be chosen. By turning the 'Color Effect Dial' on the side, settings can be easily adjusted, greatly changing the impression of the photos.

Enhance Expressiveness with Vignette Mode and Tone Adjustment
Furthermore, the 'Vignette Mode' and 'Tone Adjustment' functions allow for more artistic photography. 'Vignette Mode' creates a natural light fall-off (vignette effect) around the edges of the photo by physically narrowing the lens surroundings. The 'Tone Adjustment' function allows for the brightness of photos to be adjusted in five levels, enabling high-key or low-key photography. These functions can be combined with 'Color Effect Control' for even more diverse expressions.
